Deutsche Bank is slashing 15,000 jobs and shedding assets as new Chief Executive John Cryan starts to implement a deep overhaul at Germany's biggest bank. As Ciara Lee reports it's not the only bank struggling to restructure.
As if the end of the year weren't hard enough, the December jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics said 140,000 jobs were lost last month. According to Business Insider, the data shows all of those lost jobs were held by women. Among the newly-unemployed, Black and Latina women working in retail and education sectors were hit the hardest. The US posted a surprise decline in payrolls in December and all of the 140,000 jobs lost were held by women. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread, the US economic recovery has been mostly stagnant. Small businesses nationwide have been hit particularly hard. Many are being forced to lay off staff or close altogether to curb the pandemic's spread.
For three months, they held more jobs than men in the US economy — something that had only occurred one other time in history, during a short period in 2009 and early 2010. Sure, there were still many other gender gaps: women were more likely than men to work part-time, for example, because of caregiving responsibilities at home, and even among full-time workers, they earned on average only 81 cents for every dollar of their male peers. The pandemic quickly changed that story. And now, it just got worse.
